This is all and good. Except that WRTA needs to crack down on the vandalism and the dope dealing. I ride the buss' every day. The lobby gets full of people who just sit there all day doing nothing.
They also need to outlaw Cell Phone's on the buss's. People get annoying with them and I-Pads.
The people who the survey company probably asked, never rode a bus. Try it. Plastic seats, diesel smoke, people on cell phones, people eating. I wish WRTA would outlaw Cell Phones on busses.
I would like to see a list of streets the city plans to pave. I will make a bet none are main streets. They are probably side street nobody hardly uses.
They want to pave a street, try Wick Ave. by the college.
You need more money, cut the Mayor's and the over priced counselmen's salary for a year.
I pay enough in city taxes and I do not live in Youngstown. I live in over priced Boardman and work in Youngstown.
Ohio Senate plans ban on Internet cafes
If Mike DeWine wants to get rid of business's in the state, he should close up these Pay Day loan companies.
This time do not let them come back in under another name. All they do is screw people out of money.

Survey: Most respondents favor sales-tax renewal to fund WRTA
Renew the WRTA tax. Why?

WRTA survey seeking public's input
Why is WRTA taking a survey? All they will do is look at the them, maybe, and laugh.
I do have one suggestion for them.
Get rid of Cell Phones on busses.

Not everyone loves the parade
Dear Mrs. Porterfield:
You are right on the button. People in Boardman are rude. I live in Boardman and these people out here are the rudest people in the world.
Do not try to cross Market or 224, they will on purpose try to hit you.
I quit going to the parade out here. I do not even go to the Canfield fair because of their attitudes.
We have a neighbor who is in a Pittsburgh hospital due to being hit by a driver on a Cell Phone.

Youngstown Mayor: Violence must not define us
First off, the problem with Youngstown is that you have an African-American mayor and police chief.
They turn their backs on crime in the city. Thier more concerned about what happens with YSU than anything that goes on in the city.
As for MS Hobbs complaining sbout a grocery store, GROW UP. You knew what you were getting into when you went into public housing,
I lived in a Senior high-rise downtown on wood street. Believe me YMHA only cares about one thing, MONEY.

There is no reason to raise gas prices. The oil companies have protections and their insurance companies cover for damages,
This is just another way for managers at gas stations to get richer.

Federal program buys cell phones for the poor
This is Bull. I called the 800 number for this and I got some one in Brazil.
By the time you go through the paper work, it is a month before you get your phone.
Then you only get 50 minutes a month.
Just another waste of American jobs going to another county.

Ohio Powerball winner claims prize
Good for him. He played it smart. He got a lawyer. Hid his identity.
Every non-profit agency in the state will be bugging him about money.
